All the points you mention can be used for jacking or stands, use any combination you need.

What about by the engine/trans front bracket, the one that bolts to the two holes right below "D"??

There was a recent thread on this. Dual jacking my 911...

Even with this small jack I'm not jacking on the motor and the rear wheels are off the ground.


If you place a 2x6 under the motor lifting it is PROBABLY O.K. I won't do it that way on my magnesium motor.
When you consider the motor and trans are an aluminum alloy, on the newer cars, and they are held together by 4 bolts, with no mounts in the center, you may think twice about jacking the whole car there. IMO. Of course most of the "pros" jack their customer's cars that way.

This is the jacking and jack stand drawing I like the best. Has more than just the lift points.
